The intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and various industries is transforming the way we live and work. From detecting cognitive impairment to reshaping 3D world creation, AI is revolutionizing multiple sectors.
AI Detects Cognitive Impairment
Researchers at the University of Missouri have developed a portable system that uses AI to spot cognitive impairment. The system, which combines a depth camera, a force plate, and an interface board, can accurately identify 83% of those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) by measuring subtle differences in motor function. This breakthrough has the potential to lead to early interventions and better outcomes for those with MCI, a precursor to Alzheimer's and dementia.

Studio Tim Fu has developed a range of methodologies that blend human creativity with machine intelligence, pioneering the use of AI in conceiving the masterplan and showcasing its immense possibilities.
How AI is Changing Online Customer Behavior
A new survey reveals the impact of artificial intelligence on how consumers shop digitally. The survey finds that a majority of surveyed U.S. consumers have used AI tools to help them shop online. Six-in-10 (61%) respondents have leveraged general-purpose AI tools to help them shop online. The survey also reveals that time savings was the biggest benefit of AI shopping assistants cited by respondents, followed by easier navigation and better product recommendations.
AI Adoption in Insurance Accelerates, but ROI Pressures Loom
A study by global professional services firm KPMG has indicated that insurers have high expectations for AI adoption, although there is pressure to demonstrate immediate ROI, particularly from shareholders. The study found that 66% of the respondents anticipate a moderate to very high return on AI investment, with all respondents believing firms that embrace AI will gain a competitive edge.
Cybever Bets On AI To Reshape 3D World Creation
Cybever is a platform that uses AI to generate 3D worlds, cutting game development time by up to 70%. The platform reskins buildings and adapts them accordingly, a process that once required extensive manual effort. Cybever's ambitions go beyond just static world-building, with its upcoming video generation capabilities constructing video within interactive 3D environments.
Google Releases AI Model for Wildlife Identification
Google has made its artificial intelligence model for wildlife identification, SpeciesNet, available to the public. The model was first launched in 2019 on Google's cloud-based tool, which has helped scientists identify species in trail camera images. SpeciesNet was trained on over 65 million publicly available images and can classify animals in up to 2,000 categories at higher taxa right down to the species level.
India's Path to AI Autonomy
India is taking a distinctive approach to the global race for artificial intelligence (AI) supremacy—aiming for AI autonomy. While the United States and China focus on AI for economic dominance and national security, India's vision revolves around AI autonomy through the development of homegrown AI solutions that are closely linked to its development goals.
